SOMA Breath Live Replay with Niraj Naik | Guided Breathwork and Q&A | 2026-08-29

This live‑replay captures Session 4 of the 2026 Soma Breath Fest, a 90‑minute guided breathwork journey focused on clearing money‑related blocks and cultivating abundance. The session is introduced by host Jason and a moderator (Speaker A), who welcome participants, outline logistics, and encourage engagement. The main facilitator, master transformational coach David Gennecan, introduces his diverse career background (finance, food entrepreneurship, now breathwork) and co‑facilitator Chantal. David explains a three‑step breath protocol – rhythmic breathing, breath‑hold with recovery, and in‑breath retention – with safety contraindications. He then leads participants through a deep exploration of limiting money beliefs, reframing them as energy frequencies, using affirmations (“I am a magnet”) and visualization to reprogram subconscious patterns. The session emphasizes neuroplasticity, urging repeated practice for lasting change. Throughout, participants share reactions and testimonials. The latter part promotes an upcoming free masterclass with David and Chantal, details instructor certification pathways, upcoming sessions, replay availability, and training locations (Austin, London, Bali). The tone is instructional, enthusiastic, and community‑focused, aiming to empower attendees to shift their relationship with wealth through breathwork.
Chapters
Welcome everybody for our Breath Fest 2026. We are on our way of doing multiple sessions right now. We're right now on session number 4, and we've been having an amazing time so far, having a look at some new familiar faces. Let's have— I have all the screens up, so if you have your camera and you see me I see you as well. I want to give a big shout out to, uh, I think it was Qigong. You were dancing to that music. Did you guys like that track we started with? Once again, every time you hear these amazing musics, we're playing a lot of this music that come from the Soma Breath app.
And so if you've enjoyed that, be sure to be on that Soma Breath app.
There is a free version, there is a paid version. So Qigong Plus, I was trying to find you there. Great job, you were bringing up the energy. Keep that vibe up, you're raising it for everybody else. And everyone who is here, I just want to say a big welcome. We usually do a little world tour introduction, so I'm going to see and ask something different since we know we have an international crowd. I want you to type in how many sessions have you been tuning in for Breath Fest so far. Is this your first? Type in one.
Is two?
You've been to two. You've been to three. You've been to four. We're doing these at different time zones. I know there's some four. Where were you? I think it was you, Carissa. Oh my God! A lot of you have joined on the.
4th.
Melanie, I just saw that go through. The chat's going a little crazy. We got some of you joined for 3, so maybe you stayed late one night, one afternoon. And hey, if you are tuning in for the very first time, you are in for a treat. You can ask the people who have been here before. Take a moment if you've been here more than once, you've been to yesterday's sessions or the ones before that. Are we having a good time? Has this been helpful? We talked about this being a big summer reset and giving you an opportunity to be able to regulate your nervous system, discover the power of breathwork. And so for those who are tuning in the first time, have a look at the comment, have a look at the reactions from people, and set an expectation of the incredible time we're going to be having together. I'm not gonna lie, this is one of the most exciting sessions that I find are happening throughout Breath Fest because we see what's happening around the world. There's a lot of movement and shaking.
I mean, I'm here in Ottawa, Canada, and let's just say the conversations around economy, around finance, has been a little uneasy, but we are here using the power of our breath and realizing that if we want to be able to manifest what we want in life, if we want to be taking control of our finances, our abundance, there are so many things that we can take personal responsibility for.
And we're going to be taking that energy together today by looking at how we can become magnets for abundance, how we can bring these kinds of money blocks and show them and push them to the side using the powerful technology that lies behind Soma Breath Journeys. So if any of you have been looking to make a shift to your financial state and have been looking for these practices to help you clear blocks and step into abundance, then you can type in yes, yes in the chat, because that's exactly what we're going to be doing today in the powerful session to come. Now, a couple of little disclosures I want to give for people that are joining the first time, questions that usually happen on these live sessions. One, well, how long is this going to be?
If you've set aside an hour and a half for the session, we should have a chance to cover the entire breath journey and all the other activities that are going to be happening today.
So if you can be undisturbed, focused, and present for the next 90 minutes, we're going to have a good time.
We're going to get to cover everything in the process. Second, say you do have to leave.
Will there be a replay available?
Absolutely.
We're going to make that replay available extremely fast, and we'll even have a link from YouTube on the page that you've joined this. Right below it, you will see all the sessions that have passed, and this one will become a replay as well. And it's also going to be the same page that you can join the future sessions happening through Breathfest. We want to make this easy, accessible, so all of you who want to be able to discover the power of the breath can do so effortlessly. So yes, replays are set.
An hour and a half is what we set aside.
And again, I just want to give a little heads up because I know a lot of people have actually tuned into these sessions in a distracted state, like while driving a car. And I just want to make it clear that we don't recommend that. You should definitely be in your home. You should be present and making sure that the experience that you're spending with us here is really a moment for yourself without any distractions.
Distractions if possible.
You might be moving, so if you get to be sitting down at a desk at home, you might want to make sure there's a bit of space behind because you may find yourself moving through the session. And of course, when we get into the breath journey, perhaps you'll be laying down, perhaps you'll be sitting down, but you want to make sure again you're going to be in an undisturbed state. So with that, if I can get some thumbs up for those with the camera, I can see that you guys get to listen to me loud and clear. Hey, and if you have some reactions going on, you might see some fireworks as well. I want to be able to introduce our leader who is going to take us through the session today, a master transformational coach and a mentor to the mentors here at Soma Breath. I've had a chance to work alongside David, who's going to be the instructor today, and he is a wealth of knowledge. He is a man that has taken the curriculum to the next level to help so many of our instructors to be able to learn the basics, take it to the advanced level, and has truly mastered the skill set himself. And one of the most impressive things is his journey. From a world that you would have not associated with holistic health transformation, but rather from the very left brain industry. And you're going to hear a bit more about that. But he's been a friend. He is coming here from Switzerland, and he's here to guide you all for an incredible breath journey. The one and only David Gennecan is going to be your instructor today. Let's give him a huge round of applause, a lot of reactions. And David, welcome to the stage.
Thank you, brother. I appreciate it. Hello, hello, Sumis. Hello, tribe. I see a lot of known faces. I'm really just happy to be here to talk about abundance. And Jason was referring to my career. This is my third career, and I think this is the best. I've been 20 years in finance working for a small American company called Kraft Foods. And then I launched my own food company with Chantal, Low Carbs. High nutrients in Switzerland. And now I'm living my best life being here. And talking about abundance, during all this career, I was quite wealthy, but I was not aligned with my purpose. I was anxious on the inside. I was from the outside the strong one, the successful guy going up the ladder. But during this journey, my body Send me signs, like I started to shake, I had some anxiety. And as a strong man, resilient, I went through, I pushed, I just drove myself. But I didn't crack the code. And even though I was successful from the outside, I was— my world was getting smaller. Until I understood that I needed to align with My true purpose, and I needed a couple of years. You know, I reached that around 50-ish. And what I realized is, you know, abundance, happiness, wealth is not only about money. Wealth is about physical wealth. To be healthy is the first, is the paramount. Because if you feel depressed, if you cannot get out. From the bed in the morning. We can make all the theory, you can do all the breathwork, you need to have at least the energy. Then relationship is a big, big wealth to be happy in relationship with yourself and with the others. Emotional wealth, to feel happy. I love my life.
Time wealth.
You know, you can work, work, work, work, but you don't have the time. You don't have time to meditate, to spend time with your kids, your family. Spiritual wealth: am I connected to something, whatever I believe? There is expansionary wealth. There is intellectual wealth, curiosity, and so on. And today, What I want to share with you is a session to shift your relationship, your perception about what does it mean, what is really, what is money, wealth, whatever. So I'm going to bring you into a journey, but before I do that, I just welcome the newbies. And I'm going to explain how we breathe in summer. So in summer, we are doing rounds of breathwork. And within a round, there are 3 steps. The first step is called rhythmic breathing. You will hear the counting on the music, like in 2, out 2, 3, 4. And you will breathe in through the nose into the belly and out through the mouth. Circular, non-jerky, no tension, no force. It's going to last for 5 minutes. Then I'm going to cue you to take a deep breath in with the nose, fully in, and out. And you will hold your breath as long as possible. Of course, after a while, you will have an urge to breathe. Just try to go just beyond your comfort zone, no pain. And then just take a little sip in, a recovery breath, and again blow the air fully out.
And hold.
And repeat as needed. End of step 2, breath retention. I'm going to cue you to take a deep breath in with the nose. 1, 2, 3, fully in. And here you are going to squeeze gently your pelvic floor, contract your sphincter. Imagine you shoot the energy from the roots, in the heart, in the third eye. And we are going to hold 30, roughly, seconds. I'm going to cue you to let it go with a sound, with an oh. Three steps: one rhythmic breathing in through the nose, into the belly, out through the mouth. Second step, out breath retention with recovery breath. Third step, in breath retention. No worry, I will be with you. I will be your navigator. I will guide you. In terms of contraindications, slow rhythmic breathing techniques are generally safe for most people. Breath holds should not be practiced in any of the following cases: recent surgery, epilepsy, pregnancy in the third trimester, serious heart condition— that means pacemaker, uncontrolled high blood pressure, recent heart attack. In most other cases, The practice is considered safe. I invite you to listen to your body, reduce the intensity if needed, and avoid doing breathwork while driving, in a bath, in the water, and so on. So for the people who have these contraindications, you can completely follow the session, just abstain yourself to do the breath hold.
Okay.
So, I'm just going to check you guys. Are you ready to go deep? Yes? Give me a yes, a smile. Yeah, cool. Okay.
So, it's called a breath fest.
So, first, we are going to move. We are going to celebrate, to move the body. And I just need to connect my music. I'm just going to make a quick check. Can you hear the music? Yes, yes, yes.
Okay.
All right. Get up.
Switch on your camera. So basically, he said I am in Switzerland, but I am French. And Swiss, and you will understand why.
And ready.
Yeah, let's go into the crew. Wake up the body. Hey, give me a big smile.
Shake, shake, shake, baby. Wow. Hey, Dina. Wow!
Hey, remata!
Show me your energy.
Wow!
Honey.
Take a deep breath in. Hold.
Breathe out.
Again, deep breath in. Squeeze the pelvic floor.
Breathe out.
Deep breath in.
Gather the energy with breath.
Breathe out. Last one.
Take a breath in.
Gather the energy from the feet, the legs.
And let go.
Are you ready? Go! Yeah, this is so amazing.
Hello!
Shh!
Take a comfortable position.
How can be seated in upright position or lay down on the floor?
The arms by your side, the legs extended.
The key is comfort.
Take a deep breath in and breathe out. And welcome to this summer session. I am a magnet.
Settle in.
Close your eyes. Land in your body.
Hmm.
Take the time to arrive in the space.
It is a safe container.
I ask for healing energies to arrive in the space now. And before we do anything, Feel this truth. Money is energy. Money is frequency. Money is a feeling. The moment you can feel a frequency, you can attract it because energy Energy matches energy. Frequency finds frequency. And what you feel, you magnetize. Today, we are uncovering what has blocked that natural flow and opening the channel again. Your mind has one rule. It always goes back to what is familiar and avoids what is unfamiliar. So, if scarcity was familiar, if tension around money was familiar, if not enough was familiar, your mind simply Rewired itself to protect you. But the same rule works for you. You can make anything familiar. You can make wealth familiar. You can make receiving familiar. You can make abundance your new normal. Let's open that door. Take a slow breath in and breathe out, and let these questions land in your body, not just your mind. Your money blocks are just all based beliefs, not your truth, just conditioning. Ask yourself, what money beliefs did I hear from my family? What sentences, what patterns, what fears did I absorb without noticing it? There isn't enough money. I am not worthy, good enough to have money. What money beliefs came from my culture or society? What did I hear again and again? You have to work extremely hard to earn money. Money doesn't grow on trees. Money is the cause of conflict, corruption, and war. Having money makes you greedy or selfish. What is the one thing I heard the most about money growing up? Let your memory rise. Money should only come after I'll only be safe when I have enough money. When I have more money, I'll have more problems. Money isn't spiritual, sacred, pure. I feel small when it comes to money, like I am not allowed to take up space. Money makes me feel guilty, like I don't deserve it. Money makes me feel anxious. I am afraid it will leave me. Money was always tight in my family, so money still feels tight for me. My family taught me that money is something you survive, not enjoy. My family saw wealthy people as bad, so money feels like a betrayal. Ask yourself, what do I fear most about money today? Is it losing it? Not having enough? Not deserving it? Let it show itself. What belief blocks you from receiving it? Drop into your body, into your heart. Notice it. Name it. Don't judge it. Just acknowledge the old familiar pattern that has been running your life. Maybe you learned, I don't deserve. I am not worthy. There isn't enough. People People like me can't have that. Money causes problem. Money disappears. It's not safe to receive. In a moment, you are going to breathe in a rhythm. Just browse your life, your stories. What belief blocks you from receiving it? We are going to start with a 2-4. In through the nose and out through the mouth.
Just relax.
What do I fear most about money? Losing it? Not having enough? I don't deserve it? Just let the breath Show you the path. Be ready and breathe out.
In 2, out 2, 3, 4.
In, in through the nose, out through the mouth. That's right.
3, 4. In 2, out 2, 3, 4. In, 2, out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, out, 2, 4.
What is What is your greatest fear?

In, 3.
Focus on your breath.
Out, 2.
And just sit. Feel me naming.
What are your blocks?
I don't know. What are your greatest fears about money abundance?
Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2. Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2. Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2. Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, out, 2.
Keep breathing.
4, in.
Just analyze the old familiar pattern.
3.
Has been running your life.
In, 2.
Again and again.
2, 3, 4. In, 2. Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2. Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2. Out.
Faster to 2.
3, 4. In, 2. Out, 2. In, 2. Out, 2. In, 2. In, out, in, out.
Keep connecting with your summer intelligence.
In, out, in, out.
Recognizing and allowing in what blocks your fear.
In, out, in, out.
In, out.
Stay focused.
If your mind is wandering, come back to your breath.
In, out.
What are your biggest blocks?
In, out. In, out. In, out. In, out. In, out. In, two, out, two. In, two, out, two. In, two.
You ready to take a deep breath in again?
In, two, out, two.
Fully in and out. And hold your breath. Go into your breath. Breath retention. What belief blocks you from receiving abundance? Notice it.
Name it.
Whenever you've got the first urge to breathe, just try to override it. No pain. And then take a little sip in and again blow Blow the air fully out and hold. Repeat as necessary. Just stay still. Just look at your blocks, your resistances. I am not worthy. There isn't enough. It's not for me. It's not safe to receive. People like me can't have that.
And on the count of 3, we are going to take a deep breath in all together with The nose.
1, 2, 3, fully in. Squeeze gently the pelvic floor, contract the sphincter, and just raise this energy like a beam electric current in your heart. Just hold it. All your stories, your blocks, your resistances. Let it go with a sigh of relief and return to normal breathing. And now we shift the frequency. Silently name your limiting money beliefs. Everything counts. Small ones, big ones, clichés, jokes, fears, truths. Say them in your mind. Hear how they sound. I don't deserve. I am not worthy. And now replace the word money with energy and feel the shift. There isn't enough I am not worthy, good enough to have energy. I have to work extremely hard to earn energy.
Energy doesn't grow on trees.
Energy is the cause of conflict, corruption, and problems. Having energy makes you greedy or selfish. Energy is evil. Hard to get. Energy runs out. Do they still make sense, or do they fall apart? Speak them again, your own blocks, own beliefs, with energy. And let your nervous system recognize the illusion. Because the truth is money equals energy. Energy is everywhere. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only directed. There is more than enough wealth. It's simply misdistributed. And today, my friend, you are reclaiming your place in that flow. Take a slow, deep breath in and breathe out. Almost all money beliefs were formed before age 5. You learned What you lived. Every phrase you heard felt like truth. Your mind took it as a command, not a choice. Today, we visit the roots, not to relive it, but to release it. Let them rise. Let them show themselves. You are not going back. You are freeing yourself because now you choose the command, and the command is simple: I am a magnet. I am frequency. I am I am the energy that money responds to. I am a magnet. I am frequency. I am the energy that money responds to. Now we are going to use the breath. To rewrite your story, to reprogram your DNA, your RNA. I am a magnet. I am frequency. I am the energy that money responds to. And breathe out.
In, through, out, through. In, through, out, through.

So, welcome back. I will be your host right now. Just take the time to arrive in the space, to integrate. If someone would like to share, ask, what I'm seeing the comments go. Ah, you're here, brother.
I don't want to bring my high energy from the welcome message because I think everybody is in a beautiful space right now. That was absolutely brilliant, David. You are the master of this beautiful journey. And from what you've shared with me is this entire journey has been custom created by you, hasn't it?
Yeah, this is, this is a couple of evolution in, in my work, and this one has been revisited I think last year. And this is an exclusive one. Usually I give To my clients, but I felt really the right time to share it with the community, and I really enjoy. So thank you for having me, having the opportunity to share that with your beautiful Sumi sister brother.
David, I want to share a few of the beautiful comments that have come in. We have Aline Dory sharing: "I've cried realizing what was." holding me back from old beliefs that no longer serve me. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have someone here, Katrina. It was real interesting. I found myself resisting because of my thoughts around money, but then I have in-out was really lovely. We have Liv sharing, wish it had lasted forever. Thank you, David. Best I felt in months. Utterly beautiful. Blown away. The music, the words, but most of all, the energy.
Wow.
Well, everyone, I want to make sure for those of you who really appreciated this session today and would love to stay connected with David, he is one of our Top instructors. I've just posted his Instagram onto the chat, and I encourage everyone to at a minimum go and follow to be able to get some new journeys. Be aware of his multiple master classes, trainings that he does either with himself or with his lovely wife Chantal, who I know is also on the call here today. And they do work with clients one on one. They do retreats, master classes, and he's one of our dear. Teachers here within Soma Breath, and we're always encouraging our instructors to be able to be more successful, which is a core part of Soma Breath's mission as well. And so if you've had any value from the session today, which I know you have, the Instagram I've posted one more time. Let's make sure you get a chance to go follow that. You are doing a session, I believe, at the end of Sunday. For those who might be interested, I know they can register from the Instagram. Quick preview of what they can expect from that session?
So exactly, we are running a masterclass with, with Chantal, and this is a masterclass around escape survival mode and reconnect with your true self, even if you've tried everything else. So it's tomorrow at 8 PM Paris time, 7 PM London, 2 PM New York. This is free, and this is This is a great journey that we combine with my lovely wife, Chantal. So thank you, thank you for mentioning that. Oh, you're unmuted.
I'm unmuted, yes. I'm the one who was muted. I think I've said a whole speech in a muted format. But David and Chantal, one of the ways I find this most beautiful and how you run your practice as Soul Breath instructors is you do a lot of collaborative sessions combining both the masculine and the feminine, doing a lot of work on the emotional space. And so how long have you been working together as instructors and what kind of sessions can we expect from you? Working together, not that very long, right?
It's going to be 1.5 years.
For summer, yeah, but we have been launching a food company together and working days and nights together.
Oh, yes.
But yes, this is, for me, it has been an opening to work with Chantal. Chantal is an advanced instructor, she's emotional root healing, and combining, you know, always the masculine and the feminine, for me, it brings so much joy too, because she has so many skills. That's that's that's fun part. So today I was like an orphan. I said, "Oh, I am alone." But he was.
You were you were leading the session alone, but of course your partner wasn't too far, and you were up here with the entire tribe of Somis. So yes, for those who are asking about David's masterclass, look, you'll find all the details onto Instagram. Connect with him. You'll be able to have access and register from there. So I've posted Instagram a few times. Go ahead and register through that. You'll see the links and the details there. But as we're continuing through Breath Fest, um, we've went through a session like this. And Chantal, I kind of pulled you up, so I'll let you go back to being a participant, but I wanted to be able to say hi.
Thank you.
It's always lovely to see you. Um, so David, we've had this session. This was a deep journey. What would you recommend for everyone in the next hour, few hours, as we've processed this? What would be some best ways of integrating what we've just went So first of all, yes, it needs integration.
And integration first is just to be kind with yourself and just to do something that you love. Maybe things will pop up. And when we do deeper sessions, we say 24 hours, 48 hours. One thing is really important. All this work is about rewiring the mind, the neuroplasticity. And we know with the breath we can access to new neural pathways. And there is one rule of the brain which is repetition. So listen again to any kind of session that you, you want to really code in the brain. Because when we go in deeper sessions of breathwork, There is a kind of neuroplasticity going on, and if you just repeat, repeat, it's like the thermostat.
Okay.
You will go there. So my only advice is pick a session that resonates with you, and at least for 1 or 2 weeks, repeat it just to make sure that you program it deep down. I'm complete.
All right, well, what I've done as well in the chat here is I've made sure that you can find David's profile. So on our Soma Breath website, we have a section which is our Find an Instructor, and I'm just going to take you here right now because if you're looking to connect with David, you can find all of his details right here. So I've posted the link into the chat. You can see he's one of our master transformational coach master instructors, and you can find the Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, a direct link to his website as well as email directly. And so you'll be able to connect with our instructors that come and generate and and show up for you during these breath fests. And so we're very very grateful. The replays will be made available on YouTube for those of you who are asking. But we also have the page where you can find the upcoming sessions, and you'll get a chance to be able to. Find the replays immediately after. So spend the weekend as we have these all happening. We want this to be an intensive experience for you to gain the benefits of breathwork, have a deep experience where it acts as a nervous system reset. But you're going to see when we have our final session with Niraj as well, we're going to talk about how this is great to have as a reset, but we're also looking on how do we build this into a ritual, a habit. And this is exactly going to be some of the closing sessions that are coming up. So once again, I just want to be extremely grateful, thankful. David Gennican, thank you so much. This was a beautiful session. I want to prepare people for what will be coming next on Breath Fest as well. And so we have the replays of Brooke's session that happened on Friday. We had the kickoff that happened with Stephen Whitney. We have Claudia that did it in the last session on Friday night. This is all in Eastern time. And so if you've missed any of these past sessions, the replays are available on the same page that You get to join these live sessions, so make sure to scroll a little below and you'll be able to make sure that if you've missed any of the incredible sessions, they are all available for you for free as long as you get to get an amazing breathwork experience through the Soma Breath Protocol. And our next talk will be happening at 10 p.m. Eastern Time on Saturday evening. This will be a deep release journey with Lisa Molly. So Lisa is I believe. I believe tuning in from Dubai or from Southeast Asia. I know she was on a trip out there. She's one of our newest instructors. She's been doing phenomenal, leaving her full-time job and starting as a full-time instructor, leading classes, working with clients one-on-one. So you'll get to experience a deep release journey with Lisa. We're so excited to have her join and be able to lead you on the future session. And so make sure to tune in. We're going to be sending you some emails to make sure you don't miss out on that journey. And whatever you use be able to join the session today will be a very similar link for you to see the upcoming sessions. And so I'm very excited.
This was our session 4 of our Breath Fest. David, once again, thank you for leading the powerful journey.
There's some people on the call here who may be curious about becoming instructors themselves. What would be some words of advice for someone who is considering becoming an instructor, particularly that would put them on a path to be successful as someone breath instructor?
So if you are passionate, interested in becoming instructor, the first thing is to have a discovery call, and you will go through our team and they will explain the courses. So basically, this is an exciting adventure. I mean, if I have to summarize in 3 words, so the first level is really the body, We learn basic neurosomatic reprogramming and how to function better, to be more healthier. The second is more the awakening journey, the level what we call level 2, where you go into the subconscious mind, the emotions, unresolved trauma. And level 3 is really the master coaching where you do therapy, you learn to guide a flagship course, the 21 So this summer, I joined summer very late, and I did many, many, many courses. But this is really the crossroad. This is a holistic approach. It's much more than breathwork. This is a journey into the music, the pranayama, and the reprogramming. So it's a holistic approach. where you can grow, you can learn, you can reprogram yourself, you can contribute. So, and if you are not exactly sure, you can still listen to further sessions with the SumUp, or you can do the 21-day.
Well, David, once again, thank you so much for your time, your energy, and the beautiful journey you've contributed to the Soma Breath community. For those who have been here for the first time, we hope this is definitely not your last time. We have these future sessions that are coming up, lots of replays for you to tune in. And for those who are four on four, haven't missed a session yet, we look forward to seeing you complete your marathon. We have two more sessions to go, and this has been an incredible Breath Fest Summer 2026.
So David, I will give you a chance to go onto the sidelines.
You guys can all take a moment, send your reactions, send your loves. As David is going to punch out. And in closing, I'll make sure that our team puts a link so that if you are curious into becoming an instructor yourself, if you're currently in a career and maybe reevaluating exactly what you want to do that is aligned with your purposes, making a difference, and allows you to connect with people, we have thousands of instructors that we have certified and we need more. We're going to put a link where you can apply and we want to understand your why. The reason you want to become an instructor is something we want to get curious about. We want to to discover and work alongside with you to see if becoming a Soma Breath instructor aligns with your vision. If you're looking to bring people together in your community, grow some classes, or enhance your existing practice— perhaps bring breathwork to your existing holistic modalities— we know this is one of the fastest growing fields. People are looking for it, it is growing, and we want to make more instructors successful so we get to cover the entire world with live classes, online classes, and more. We're developing tools to support our instructors. We have the best education to ensure not only you how to lead a breathwork session, but you know how to run a business as a Soma Breath instructor as well. So when it comes to finding your clients, bringing your class together, and delivering a professional experience so you can confidently do it, this is what we've put into our training. And again, we've been doing this for almost a decade. We have thousands of instructors that are successful doing it, and we'd love to help you either make a career transition, be able to replace your current income and do so as an instructor, or perhaps enhance your current practice, again bringing new clients or working with your existing ones Within the modality that, as you felt today, brings results, deep results that last and are done substance-free as well. And so link is going to be there. You get to fill the application and book a call with one of our team members. Our team has added additional slots for accommodating the amount of you who have been booking calls through this Breath Fest, so you can find a time, hopefully. And so do have a look, build the application, and look at the available times that we've made available. And if there's any other times that doesn't fit your schedule, you can always request a callback and we're going to get in touch with you and find what is the best way to do it. And on top of that, we're offering the entire selection of certification programs to be available for 20% off during our Breath Fest. And so this is the best sale that we do every year. We hope you're going to be able to take advantage of that. There's not been a better time. And whether you're looking for payment plans, you're looking for flexibility, all those options can be discussed, and the pathways based on what you choose, we'll be able to discuss exactly what is the range of price. But as a baseline, you can look at one of our instructor trainings happening in Austin, whether you're doing it online or in person. An Austin training will be looking at around $2,500 to do an in-person and online training for your Level 1 certification. So that'll give you a bit of a baseline to look at when it comes to budgeting.
We also have a training in London that is happening at the beginning of October And so if all of this seems like a lot of information, it's because it is. Take the first step.
You simply apply, get on a call with our team. We'll clarify your options and see where we can meet you if this is the right fit and guide you on the path so we can give you more clarity, more vision and flow.
And so link is in the chat. I'll be seeing you all for the next session.
It'll be at 10:00 PM Eastern time. So I will be with you on this one as well.
Lynn, we don't have in-person trainings in Canada.
The closest one would be Austin. Or going out to London. And so book the call, have the conversation, and we'll let you know what are the available options for in-person training. If none of those options are available, we actually have an experiential training that is happening in Bali. So if you've been looking for an excuse to travel to Bali, Indonesia, we have a 7-day retreat which is an all-inclusive experience where you get certified, get a transformation. And the rest of our in-person trainings are usually 2 days. Once again, See the page. We've clicked the link. Book a call. Ask your questions. We're going to take care of you individually because our program has most of its modules that are done online, but you get individual time with a mentor so we can match you with the flexibility that you have, the time that you have, and you'll maybe find yourself matching with David himself as he is one of our lead mentors helping so many of our SOMIs graduate and pass their different levels. I think you have a lot of your own students, Dave, that are on the call today, and I think they can attest. Testify to how much you take care of them and how you've guided them into getting their certifications as well. So if you're curious, then definitely book. And if I don't hear from you in the next few minutes from booking a call, we will see you at the future sessions. We have it at 3 AM in the UK, so for Europeans, this will be your night owl time. If you can't make it for that one, we do have the closing session as well with Niraj. That'll be happening at 3 PM UK time on Sunday Afternoon, 10 AM for us here in Eastern time zone. So we are complete, as David would say. Much love, take care, keep using the tools that we've been giving you, watch the replays, and I will see you live for the next session.
Much love, ciao ciao for now. Take care.
Bye.
